if you used paypal to pay you can copy and paste what you have written here into a dispute. You usually will get your money back on something like this which is received but not at all what you expected.

Re: Knize Ten - Help!

atrac,

Can you post a picture or the website link?

Is this the one that was advertised as being a rare vintage bottle?

I ask because my cologne is a splash. I bought it used from a fellow Basenoter and it also had stuff sticking on the top and inside of the opening. Some of it is still visible in the picture. It is authentic, however, as the new EdT spray next to it smells identical.

Re: Knize Ten - Help!

*Gasp* Yes, mine looks like that too. Knize undoubtedly used something they should not have been using to keep it secure if it couldn't hold up to the juice inside. Do you also have pieces of rubber on the bottom?

The part that is more odd to me...doesn't your stuff smell like rubber??? When I applied it, all I smelled was rubber. Maybe a hint of lavender. Nothing else. And to note, neither of those smells were "overpowering" like I've read in reviews of Knize Ten ("the first spray is overpowering.."). Rubber...lavender...then nothing. A very quick fade.

I'm so very confused. I am at a huge disadvantage as well because I have never smelled any other bottle of Knize Ten. I have tried to find it locally (Los Angeles for pete's sake) and have been unsuccessful. Hence my desire to purchase this one (and deal with a vintage bottle).

Re: Knize Ten - Help!

What you have there is a very old bottle of Knize Ten. The rubber stopper was made with a natural rubber that was degraded by alcohol over time. If there is no other notes than Lavender, then your stuff is probably well past the useable stage.
